Answer:
9x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
(7x + 3) + (4x - 1) - (2x + 4)
Distribute the minus sign
(7x + 3) + (4x - 1) - 2x - 4
Combine like terms
7x+4x-2x +3 -1-4
9x -2
To find the answer, we plug 8 into the equation in the place of x, since x represents the number of minutes.
w(8) = 250(8)
2(8) = 2000
You can read 2000 words in 8 minutes.
